I wondered if we'd deal with this because both my husband and I are severely nearsighted with astigmatism but our eye doctor said she'll probably follow our progression which was starting sometime around 6 or 7. If you have any concerns at all, don't wait. Make the appointment and visit the eye doctor. Nearsightedness can absolutely develop at any age.
